Jaume marquet
is an eccentric outsider striving to become famous by streaking in front of the cameras at major televised sporting events under his alter ego "Jimmy Jump". "Jump! The World's Greatest Streakers", follows Jimmy's journey from Barcelona to Madrid where he will attempt to streak at the largest football match in Spain - "El Classico" live in front of 80,000 spectators and 100 million people watching worldwide.
Jimmy’s journey to madrid
will open the doors into the eccentric world of professional sports streaking, where the industry’s most successful streakers and jumpers tell us what it takes to become a renegade marketing tool for sponsoring companies. We meet the lawyers that represent them, and the public relations specialists that deal with the fallouts when publicity stunts become public disasters.
The industry of renegade marketing
is as serious as any other, and it is one that Jimmy feels has exploited him and left him completely broke. While some industry insiders applaud his convictions to jump only for himself, others believe that he is forced to do so because he is a crazy self-absorbed amateur who doesn’t care that good timing and respect are key to becoming a true professional.
